I was personally so disappointed by this in 1999 that I simply replayed the Super NES version and watched the animated cutscenes on the Internet. This collection is only 50% Final Fantasy You have to stare at a black screen for about 7 seconds just to enter a house from the overworld map, and worst of all, every battle is preceded by loading.

Rather than remaster the game, Square-Enix has the unenviable task of simply not screwing it up when porting the game to different platforms.

The gameplay remains accessible and the colorful graphics and lush music have held up extremely well. The problem with games like Chrono Trigger is that they donвЂ™t really require any updates to appeal to modern gamers.
